First seen Jun 24, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 1 time
Summary
This completed study looked at 164 women with and without fibromyalgia to see if certain autoantibodies are linked to more severe symptoms. Researchers compared patients with high and low antibody levels, and healthy controls, using questionnaires, blood tests, skin biopsies, and brain scans. The goal was to better understand how the immune system and nervous system interact in fibromyalgia.
